Does anyone know where I can get the approved exercise activity list for NSW?
I was hoping to do a solo ocean swim tomorrow? I know Pools are shut but can I still ocean swim for exercise?

If you can swim you can swim, the question is if you may swim.

This is a matter for your local council as per local government act
633 Bathing (including nude bathing) and other water-based recreational activities
(1) A person who, in a place being-
(a) a public bathing place under the control of a council, or
(b) a river, watercourse or tidal or non-tidal water, or
(c) the sea adjacent to (although outside) an area, or
(d) a public place adjacent to any of those places,
fails to comply with the terms of a notice erected by the council is guilty of an offence.

So so if the council says you may not use the beach then you may not swim, whether you actually can or otherwise.

Of course, if you don't tell anyone you can do whatever you want, but it will be an offence, nude or otherwise.

Edit: you could take a boat far enough off shore to not be considered adjacent to an area or leave territorial waters altogether, in the latter case you would then be subject to quarantined restrictions on return.

1) jumping to conclusions
2) flying off the handle
3) carrying things too far
4) dodging responsibilities
5) pushing my luck

You can swim, but make sure you are wearing a mask while doing so.

Don't move to Valla.

You won't get sprung on the water but our beach has limited space as evidenced last week when all six regulars were taking advantage of the late north Easter!

I see you are playing it safe, with 3G.

If you are in a fringe 4G area you are better off switching to 3G otherwise your phone (well my phone) will persist with the useless 4G signal rather than the perfectly fine 3G.

Tug Boating is not banned, you still need to be careful though when docking and unloading
